Hi,

MP3 was a multitabler, but not a very good one.

Bet about 300 on the flop adn defo bet for value on the turn to pot commit yourself on the river. The limper would have checkraised you with a set of 4s. Can't see him limping with AQ or AJ. As played defo call on the river.

I don't mind checking the turn although in this limit I think it is probably better to just bet bet bet.


On $6, TPTK = go broke.

Anssi, do you check the turn because you think MP3 is slowplaying a set?

I checked behind the turn for potcontrol because its seems to be a well ahead / well behind situation, but now i realized that this doesnt make sense because pot is already out of control. Should just shove turn.

You may be way ahead / way behind in this spot, but those situations are generally called such when you know you won't ever get value from worse. This is definitely not one of those spots; there are a TONNE of worse hands that will chip you up if you jam it in on the turn. Turn is an easy shove.


I shove the turn, someone could hold a set of 4s, just bad luck then :)

Well, I don't think we will get 3 streets of value from AT or Ax anyways. There aren't any draws either. Checking turn looks weaker and might induce a bluff on river. There is small possiblity he has set, he can also have weak ace or random pockets like 77 or 99. All in all I don't think there much difference EV-wise in checking and betting. Of course all would change if we had any info on players (calling station, loose, tight...).

I shove the turn, but checking can't be bad either. I think folding this river as played is good, but you have to call bets on most rivers.

IMO, Readless I would shove turn and get ready to note. what ever they are limp/calling here is worth a note (because what ever it is its a horrible play)
